PREFACE. 


It  is  always  an  ungrateful  task,  to  criticise  the  work  of 
one's  predecessors  in  any  branch  of  inquiry.  When,  how- 
ever, that  work  is  one  which  does  not  call  for  any  mental 
labor,  when  it  admits  neither  of  reasoning,  fancy  or  inven- 
tion, when,  as  in  the  present  case,  it  calls  simply  for  accu- 
racy, criticism  becomes  justifiable  and  unavoidable. 

In  1852,  the  late  Thomas  Bridgman  published  a  book 
entitled  u  Memorials  of  the  Dead  in  Boston  ;  containing 
an  exact  transcript  from  Inscriptions,  Epitaphs  and  Re- 
cords on  the  Monuments  and  Tombstones  in  Copp's-Hill 
Burying  Ground,"  etc.,  etc. 

The  justification  for  the  present  volume  lies  in  the  fact 
that  Mr.  Bridgman's  transcript  was  not  exact,  and  was 
very  far  from  exhaustive.  The  errors  in  transcribing, 
though  very  numerous,  were  mostly  trivial ;  but  the 
omissions  were  inexcusably  numerous.  Out  of  the  2000 
inscriptions  here  copied,  about  800  are  not  to  be  found  in 
Mr.  Bridgman's  book. 

It  may  therefore  be  claimed  for  this  volume,  that  as  sup- 
plementing his  work,  it  has  added  nearly  as  many  facts  to 
the  knowledge  of  the  antiquary  as  the  original  afforded 
him.  It  is  not  a  re-casting  of  old  material,  but  a  large 
contribution  of  material  not  before  accessible. 


iv.  Preface. 

As  to  the  accuracy  of  the  present  transcript,  it  should 
be  stated  that  the  editor  employed  the  late  Thomas  B. 
Wyman,  Jr.,  to  prepare  it  from  the  original  stones,  care- 
fully comparing  all  of  Mr.  Bridgman's  text,  and  noting 
all  errors  and  omissions.  The  work  was  done  deliberately, 
and  no  one  who  has  had  the  pleasure  of  knowing  Mr. 
Wyman,  will  doubt  that  it  was  done  with  conscientious 
care. 

The  printed  text  has  been  carefully  compared  with  Mr. 
Wyman's  copy,  the  original  of  which,  containing  a  full 
annotation  in  regard  to  the  position  of  each  stone,  is  de- 
posited in  the  office  of  the  City  Registrar  of  Boston. 

In  order  that  the  truth  of  history  may  be  preserved,  the 
reader  is  warned  that  Mr.  Bridgman  admitted  some  in- 
scriptions into  his  book  which  never  existed  in  the  Copp's 
Hill  yard.  Especially  was  this  the  case  in  regard  to  coats- 
of-arms.  Thus,  on  page  2  of  his  book,  he  gives  the  Lake 
arms,  which  are  not  on  the  stone.  On  page  162  he  gives 
the  Thornton  arms  and  an  inscription  in  form  of  an 
epitaph ;  but  no  such  stone  ever  existed.  On  page  221 
the  Loring  arms  figured  without  any  authority,  though  as 
this  appears  among  the  notes,  the  cautious  reader  might 
not  be  misled.  On  page  186,  there  is  a  list  of  persons  de- 
posited in  the  Shute  tomb,  but  whose  names  are  not  in- 
scribed on  it.  So  also,  all  the  names  on  pages  198, 199  and 
200  are  those  of  persons  buried  elsewhere. 

The  true  record  of  all  the  coats-of-arms  inscribed  on 
stones  in  this  yard  will  be  found  in  the  Introduction, 


Preface.  v. 

The  most  economical  form  of  printing  has  been  adopted 
for  this  volume,  from  necessity.  The  object  sought  has 
been  to  give  a  faithful  transcript  of  the  reading  of  each 
inscription,  with  such  an  approximation  to  the  spelling  and 
lettering  as  ordinary  type  would  yield.  No  attempt  has 
been  made  to  add  punctuation,  except  in  the  few  cases 
where  the  sense  might  be  obscured  by  a  too  literal  tran- 
scription. 

Lastly,  the  editor  has  ventured  to  place  his  name  upon 
the  title  page,  as  the  inciter  of  the  enterprise,  cheerfully 
acknowledging,  as  he  already  has,  the  merits  of  the  tran- 
scriber. But  he  cannot  leave  unrecorded  his  sense  of  the 
public  spirit  which  has  impelled  the  publisher  to  undertake 
the  enterprise. 

The  patronage  afforded  to  such  works  is  too  scanty  to 
make  them  attractive  to  publishers,  and  the  citizens  of 
Boston  may  well  return  thanks  to  one  who  has  thus  put 
a  portion  of  their  records  beyond  the  reach  of  ordinary 
dangers. 

Equally  faithful  copies  of  the  inscriptions  in  the  other 
grave-yards  in  old  Boston,  were  made  by  Mr.  Wyman 
for  the  editor.  Should  the  present  volume  meet  with 
moderate  success,  an  attempt  will  be  made  hereafter  to 
print  those  transcripts  also.

Boston,  July  1st,  1878. 


INTRODUCTION. 


The  grave-yards  in  Boston  proper,  have  been  the  King's  Chapel 
yard,  the  Copp's  Hill  yard,  the  Granary,  the  Quaker's  yard  in  Con- 
gress street,  the  yard  on  the  Common,  the  one  on  Boston  Neck, 
and  five  collections  of  tombs  under  as  many  of  our  churches. 

Of  these  the  King's  Chapel  yard  was  the  first  in  use,  and  in  1642 
an  order  was  passed  by  the  town  for  the  constables  to  fence  it. 

The  second  in  date,  was  the  Copp's  Hill  yard,  concerning  which 
the  following  order  was  passed  by  the  town,  Nov.  5th,  1660  :  "  It 
is  ordered  that  the  old  burying  place  shall  be  wholly  deserted  for 
some* convenient  season,  and  the  new  place  appointed  for  burying 
only  made  use  of." 

The  town  had  already  bought  a  piece  of  land  as  appears  by  the 
following  deed,  dated  20th  Feb.,  1659-60,  and  recorded  in  Suff. 
Deeds,  lib.  53,  fol.  153.  'John  Baker  and  Daniel  Turell,  sell  to  the 
selectmen  of  Boston,  a  lot  of  land,  294  feet  on  the  northerly  side, 
252  feet  on  the  southerly  side;  in  breadth  on  the  easterly  end  120 
feet.  Butting  on  the  way  that  leadeth  from  the  new  meeting  house 
in  Boston  towards  Charleston  ferry,  on  the  north;  on  the  lands  of 
William  Phillips  southerly ;  on  the  land  of  John  Baker  and  Daniel 
Turell  easterly;  and  on  the  way  that  leadeth  from  Senter-haven 
towards  Charleston  ferry  westerly.' 

The  first  yard  then  was  a  parallelogram  with  its  longer  sides  fac- 
ing north-east  and  south-west,  so  that  the  left  hand  upper  corner,  at 
the  junction  of  Charter  and  Snow-hill  streets,  pointed  almost  due 
north. 

After  some  forty  years,  an  enlargement  was  desirable,  and  the 
corresponding  lot  on  the  south-west  was  purchased  by  the  town  of 
Judge  Samuel  Sewall  and  his  wife. '      (Sufif.  Deeds,  lib.  26,  fol.  97.) 


1  Already,  January  7,  1708,  Sewall  and  his  wife  Hannah  had  sold  to  Joshua  Gee,  the 
following  named  lot  (Suff.  Deeds,  lib.  25,  fol.  174).  One  rod  square  in  their  pasture 
"  adjoining  the  north  burying  place,  in  which  parcel  of  ground  Mrs.  Mary  Thacher  now 
lyeth  buried,1'  bounded  north  by  the  said  burying  place  and  on  all  other  sides  by  Sewall's 
land,  with  no  way  to  said  land  except  what  he  has  through  the  burying  place. 


Introduction.  vii. 

Deed  dated  17  Dec.,  1707 ;  in  consideration  of  £50  paid  and  the  re- 
lease from  the  payment  of  an  annual  quit-rent  of  40  shillings  for  a 
certain  cedar  swamp  in  Brookline,  Samuel  Sewall  and  wife  Han- 
nah, sold  the  town  of  Boston  land  for  enlarging  the  north  burying 
place.  It  adjoined  said  place  northerly,  measuring  250  feet; 
southerly  it  bounded  on  Hull  street,  measuring  across  in  a  straight 
line  to  the  burying  place,  140  feet.  On  Hull  street  it  measured 
180  feet;  westerly  on  Snow  hill  170  feet. 

The  yard  thus  increased  was  nearly  a  square,  bounded  on  three 
sides  by  streets. 

In  1809  another  enlargement  was  made,  by  the  purchase  of  the 
adjoining  lot,  on  Hull  street,  east  of  the  Sewall  portion  of  the  old 
yard.  The  deed  was  dated  18  Dec,  1809,  and  was  recorded  in  lib. 
231,  fol.  199.  It  states  as  follows.  For  $10,000,  Benjamin  Weld 
and  wife  Nabby  sold  the  town  of  Boston  a  parcel  of  land,  bounded 
south-west  on  Hull  street  148  feet,  north-west  on  the  burial  ground 
138  feet  6  inches ;  north-east  on  land  of  Goodwin  and  other  153 
feet  south. east  on  land  of  Jonathan  Merry  123  feet  :  being  land 
conveyed  to  Weld  by  Merry,  21  Oct.,  1809,  recorded  lib.  230,  fol. 
191. 

This  lot  is  nearly  square  and  is  rather  less  than  one-half  the  size 
of  the  old  yard.     Like  the  first,  it  is  surrounded  with  a  row  of  tombs. 

(Suff.  Deeds,  lib.  262,  fol.  296,)  3  June  1819,  John  Bishop  of 
Medford,  sold  to  Charles  Wells,  for  $1,051.30,  land  in  Charter  street 
bounded  north-east  on  said  street  20  feet  north-westerly,  70  feet  on 
the  burying  ground  20  feet  wide,  then  continuing  50  feet  more, 
28  feet  wide  ;  southwest  28  feet  on  land  formerly  of  Dr.  Wm.  Clark, 
but  now  a  burying  ground ;  then  south-east  50  feet,  28  feet  wide, 
then  continuing  70  feet  more  20  feet  wide,  on  land  formerly  owned 
by  Wm.  Fowle.  It  was  the  land  which  Stephen  Grorham  as  admin- 
istrator of  Nathaniel  Holmes,  sold  to  said  Bishop,  14  Dec,  1791, 
recorded  lib.  184,  fol.  59. 

This  lot  of  land,  now  bounded  on  the  north-east  by  Marshall  place, 
seems  to  be  entirely  covered  by  tombs,  thirty-four  in  number,  erected 
by  Mr.  Charles  Wells  with  the  consent  of  the  town. 

The  following  extracts  from  the  town  records  throw  some  light 
upon  the  history  of  particular  tombs.  These  tombs  in  the  old  yard 
are  numbered  consecutively  as  follows.  Beginning  on  Hull  street, 
at  the  south-east  corner,  next  to  the  new  yard,  and  running  westerly 
numbers  1  to  21  inclusive.  On  Snow  hill  street,  numbers  22  (at 
the  corner  of  Hull  street),  to  No.  55  at  the  corner  of  Charter  street. 


viii.  Introduction. 

Then  returning  to  the  south-east  corner  on  Hull  street,  and  running 
north-east  along  the  line  of  the  yard  to  Charter  street,  numbers  56 
to  83  inclusive.  Then  westerly  on  Charter  street,  numbers  84  to 
115  inclusive. 

In  the  open  yard  are  situated  tombs  numbered  116  to  125  in- 
clusive. 

The  list  of  tombs  and  the  owners  thereof,  now  preserved  in  the 
office  of  the  Board  of  Health,  is  quite  modern  and  very  unsatisfac- 
tory as  regards  the  earlier  ownership.  We  can  discover,  however, 
that  in  1717  the  first  row  of  tombs  was  in  process  of  erection. 

These  grants,  as  nearly  as  can  be  ascertained  from  the  modern 
list,  were  as  follows,  and  bear  date  in  1717-1718  : 

1 

2  John  Char  nock. 

3  Joshua  Gee. 

4  John  Frizell. 

5  James  Pecker  and  Benjamin  Edwards. 

6  Thomas  Lee. 

7  ?  James  Grrant. 

8  John  Baker. 

9  John  Ruck. 

10  Edward  Martyn. 

11  ?  James  Pitts. 

12  John  Clark. 

13  William  Clark. 

14  Robert  Orange. 

15  ?  Mrs.  Mary  Hough,     ?  Samuel  Burnell. 

16  Edward  Proctor. 

17  John  Mountfort. 

18  John  Langdon. 

A  careful  search  on  the  town  records,  fails  to  give  any  more  in- 
formation in  regard  to  the  grants  of  tombs  from  19  to  32.  The 
official  list  contains  only  the  names  of  modern  families. 

In  1722  it  seems  that  a  new  range  of  tombs  was  commenced  at 
the   south-east   corner    on  Hull   street,  running  north.     Here  we 

identify 

56  John  Greenough. 

57  Samuel  Greenwood. 

58  Thomas  Hutchinson. 

59  Jonathan  Mountfort. 

60  Walter  Goodrich. 


Introduction.  ix. 

61  Edward  Pell. 

62  John  Roberts. 
63  John  Cookson. 

In  1743,  grants  are  recorded,  on  the  Snow  hill  street  side,  to 

33  Cap't  Parker. 

34  John  Larrabee. 

35  Samuel  Hunt. 

36  ?  Richard  Hunnewell. 

37  ?  Daniel  Bell. 

38  ?  do. 

In  1801,  Thomas  Godfrey  and  others  were  allowed  to  build  No. 
39,  hence  we  may  conclude  that  the  range  for  a  long  time,  ended 
with  38. 

Undoubtedly  our  examination  of  the  county  records  would  reveal 
many  facts  in  regard  to  the  transfer  of  tombs,  and  thus  throw  light 
on  their  history.  But  this  is  hardly  the  occasion  for  such  an  in- 
vestigation, and  it  may  well  be  postponed  until  such  time  as  the 
Board  of  Health  of  the  city  of  Boston  shall  decide  to  exercise  its 
new  power  as  custodian  of  the  several  graveyards. 

We  proceed  therefore  to  give  all  the  passages  in  the  Selectmen's 
Records  which  relate  to  this  yard.

Clark  Arms.  These  arms  are  on  the  stone  bearing  inscription 
No.  992,  and  are  repeated  on  the  stone  inscribed  with  epitaph  No. 
997.  The  reader  may  learn  that  inscription  No  991  "  the  tomb  of 
Samuel  Winslow"  is  also  on  the  first  of  these  Clark  tombs,  and  in-

Introduction. 


dicates  that   Mr.   Winslow,  a  former  sexton  of  the   neighborhood, 
obtained  possession  of  the  tomb  in  some  manner. 


III. 

Watts.     On  the  reverse  of  the  stone  bearing  the  inscription  No. 
1199,  to  the  Kev.  Andrew  Eliot,  will  be  found  the  following  arms. 


This  however  was  an  honest  transaction,  as  is  pointed  out  in  the 
Heraldic  Journal,  ii,  119,  as  the  Eliots  bought  the  tomb  and  paid 
for  altering  the  stone.  The  presumption  is  that  the  Watts  family 
represented  the  original  owner,  and  that  perhaps  the  stone  came 
from  tomb  No.  15.  The  arms  are  not  inscribed  to  any  family  of 
the  name  of  Watts.^
